Have you seen all of the NEW Stampin’ Up! Colors? Today I am showcasing the Granny Apple Green. It is AMAZING! And I have paired it with the NEW/Returning Poppy Parade. Both of these are very vibrant colors and just scream SUMMER!
Stitched All Around, 146632
Can you tell how bright this green is? The photograph is pretty close to the true color. It is obviously a pull out type card. I really like these because they are flexible. It can be a quick note of thanks, an invitation, etc.
Here is the inside card pulled out for the sentiment.
Stitched All Around, 146632
I believe this is a sweet little insert sentiment and I know I would love to receive this card. I stamped the outside decoration on the Granny Apple Green with the Granny Apple Green Ink to give it the watermark look. For the insert, I used the same stamp, but I stamped off once before stamping on the Whisper White. I wanted to be able to write over it as well as stamp the Lovely Friend.
The sentiments I used are in the Stitched All Around stamp set. It is one that I looked at a couple of times before I saw the possibilities. (A perk of being a demonstrator is that I received the catalog early!!) The flower is from the Hold On To Hope stamp set, another favorite!!
Thank you for visiting today. If you have any questions please let me know. I have included the measurements below. And the supply list is at the bottom of the page.

It is still a great time to become a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator. I would love to have you join my team. A great perk for demonstrators this time of year is getting to see the new catalog first. Then we get to order and play with the new products a month early. For me, that is one of the best parts of being a SU Demonstrator. Of course, the discount helps! If you are interested, please contact me and let’s talk.
Happy Monday to you! It appears the the storms are finally leaving us here in the south. That is reason enough to celebrate. My thoughts are with other parts of the country that had flooding and other serious events happen. Hopefully my card today will give you a SMILE for a few minutes.
Waterfront, 146386
When I think of Good Times, I think of either the mountains, or the beach. Today I have focused on the mountains. The stamp set Waterfront is the perfect stamp set for those like me who like these two vacation spots. It is a piece of cake to depict either location just by using different colors.
Today’s colors are so rich and beautiful together. I do not believe the photograph really does them justice. The returning Blackberry Bliss is a real jewel! I used the Seaside Embossing Folder for the background layer and it really shows off well in the Blackberry.
Thank you for visiting today. I have used quite a few colors on my card and they are on the supply list at the bottom of the post. Do not forget about the Clearance Rack. Even though technically the Retired List is gone, leftover items will begin showing up on the Clearance Rack pretty soon.
Stay tuned tomorrow and I will try to get a few of the Stampin’ Up! new product videos to link. In the meantime, you can always go to the Stampin’ Up! YouTube site and begin watching. Enjoy!!

I have a cute little 4 X 4 card today. I love these for several reasons. They are easy to prepare for since everything is square cuts, they are smaller and great for DSP, and they still can be mailed in a regular A2 card envelope. Yay! But this one is just cute 🙂
Bike Ride, 143716
Yes, I know the title says Bike Ride and this is a basket of apples! But this basket of apples fits on the bike, I just omitted the bike. There are a variety of items that fit in the basket. And the sentiment, even though from a different stamp set, matched perfectly to the apples I believe. I love when the unexpected is perfect!!
For a mostly brown card this one is quite bright. The Designer Series Paper is the upcoming Nature’s Poem. I totally adore it. The colors are very rich and there are great alternate patterns to the leaves. But the leaves are so soft that they are like a painting.
Thank you so much for visiting today! I hope you enjoyed today’s card and will leave me a comment. Stay safe in this nasty weather and please stop back tomorrow. As always, the complete list of supplies is at the bottom of the post. If you click on any item it will take you directly to my online store.

The title should read Thank You For Your Service!! Although we are thanking the service men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice . Remembering those who did not come home is the hardest I believe. I am very appreciative of all our Service Men and Women. So please remember them today as you are celebrating with family and friends.
To honor our fallen heroes, I could not find my military stamp set. So I created what I hope will be appreciated. I used the Ribbon Of Courage and my Stampin’ Write Markers.
Ribbon of Courage, 143855
Of course, my colors are Red , White, and Blue. I colored the stamp with the red, left the center uncolored, and the bottom in blue. I then went around the edges and inside lines with the Black Stampin’ Write Marker to define everything. It actually turned out like I envisioned it! that doesn’t happen very often.
Thank you for taking the time to check my card today. I very much appreciate it. I hope you can enjoy this day with family and friends. My thoughts are also with those having damage from the storm. The supplies I used are at the bottom of the page.

This NEW stamp set, yes I am using a New set today!, is one of my favorite. I received it in my bag at the Atlanta OnStage in April and immediately new it was going to be a favorite. And I have paired it with the best ever Designer Series Paper, Share What You Love.
Animal Outing, 146600
I am not really sure which is cuter, the animals or the bright colors of polka dots on the paper. To keep the animals and DSP as the focus, I paired this with softer colors of Crumb Cake and Mint Macaron. I think this would be a greatly appreciated Thank You card. It would definitely receive a smile.

SUPPLIES: Sorry….there was no picture available of the Animal Outing stamp set.
Today’s card is back to showcasing a retiring set. Although this set and the matching punch will be sticking around my house. This set is perfect for Military, Law Enforcement and especially a super Father’s Day card.
My Hero , 141957
I paired this lovely stamp with the True Gentleman DSP. It is another beautiful Designer Series Paper that is super for use in all kinds of projects. It is layered on Chocolate Chip. The card base is Thick Very Vanilla with a layer of Crumb Cake on top. And do not forget this perfect badge punch. Unfortunately is is retiring as well, so get it while you can.
The badge also gives you a bit of a sneak peek at a couple of new colors. The gold is Mango Melody and the blue is Blueberry Bushel. Both are gorgeous !!
Thank you for visiting today. I very much appreciate your taking time to stop by. All of the supplies are listed at the bottom of the page.
